P.E. SOL- 
Objectives: Students will demonstrate their previously learned basketball skills (dribbling, passing, and shooting) in a game situation.  Students will improve cardiovascular fitness, demonstrate quickness and improve upper body strength.  Students will demonstrate good teamwork and sportsmanship throughout the activity.  Equipment: 12 basketballs, 40 bottles or pins, 4 cones
Lesson
1.                 
The teacher will split the classes into four different teams.  The teams will line up on the white line next to their color cone.
2.                 
For two classes, the first 3 players in the line will get a ball (the teacher may designate certain balls to alleviate confusion when shooting).  For a single class, the first two players in each line will get a ball.
3.                 
The object of the game is to make one basket and pick up one of their bottles or pins from their basket.  The team that collects all 10 bottles or pins first and stands them up by their team (next to the wall) will win the game.  
4.                 
When the teacher says, “go” the game begins and the players with the ball will go to their basket and try to make a basket (red and green shoot at the SOUTH end basket, blue and yellow shoot at the STAGE side basket).  Students must remember that there will be other students shooting at their basket so they must be careful.
5.                 
If they make a shot (they only get one chance per turn), they may get a bottle or pin from their basket and place it on the floor next to the wall (the bottle or pin must be standing!!).  After they have placed the cone or pin on the floor they will let another teammate have a turn.  Only a player that makes a basket can take a bottle or pin, if they miss the shot they must return to their team and let another player have a turn and go to the end of the line.
6.        
The game continues until one of the 4 teams collects ten bottles or pins then the game will start over.

SAFETY:  After shooting the ball, all players must go outside the white line to return the ball back to their teammates.  No passing is allowed when bringing the ball back to a teammate.
